-It will t us be seen that there is prov'videda device'in which "the several objects of'this invention are achieved and" which is; well adapted to meet the conditionso'f practical use.

As various ppssiblefembodiments might be made of the a I oveinvention and as various changes might be made in the embodiment i above set forth, it is tobe understood'that all matter herein set forth or shown-in the accompanying drawings is to be interpreted as illustrative and not in a limiting sense;
